Member Since: October 2004 Posts: 9 Send Message	Hi can anyone give me ANY info that might help. My Gt Grandparents moved over to Birtley Co DurhamEngland about 1890. His name was Robert from Belfast Tyrone and she was Mary Jane MQuinn from Cookstown N Ireland. They had some children over in Ireland and some after they arrived here. Also I wonder why they chose a small place like Birtley. Did they already have relatives over here and came to join them. Any bit of help i could get would be gratefully received. Linda
